Christina Cornelison is the Director of the Madison County Public Library with branches in Richmond and Berea Kentucky. In a county with fewer than 100,000 residents her libraries welcome more than 300,000 visitors and circulate over a half million books each year. She is passionate about the role a library can play in encouraging early reading and language development and in providing a vast array of services to the community from 3D printing to GED classes–all for free. We have a great conversation about the importance of neutrality in a library where there should be no agenda, and the crucial role that libraries play in offering unfettered access to information to anyone who wants it. Christina makes it clear that libraries should be focused on books but also on the many ways they serve and educate all members of a community with no cost and no barriers.
